When Karl Lagerfeld was named at the helm of the fashion house in 1983, he set out to radically shake up and update its image – not only through bold collections but also, from 1987 onwards, by choosing to shoot the house’s campaigns himself, a move that was unprecedented for a fashion designer. Conceived in collaboration with Karl Lagerfeld and the House of Chanel, this definitive publication opens with an essay by Patrick Mauries before exploring the campaigns themselves, organized chronologically. A carefully curated selection of images showcases hundreds of spectacular clothes worn by the top fashion models – and personalities – of each era, from Ines de la Fressange, Claudia Schiffer, Kate Moss and Cara Delevingne, to Kirsten Stewart and Lily Rose Depp, captured in glamorous locations, from Coco Chanel’s Paris apartment to the French Riviera or LA. Presented in a high-end, slipcased package, Chanel: the Karl Lagerfeld Campaigns offers an unrivalled overview of the house of Chanel as seen through the eyes – and lens – of Karl Lagerfeld himself.

She took a 'plaything' and turned it into a global industry which defined the modern woman. Filled with new insights and thrilling discoveries, Lisa Chaney's Chanel provides the most defining and provocative portrait yet.

En suivant l’itineraire Chanel, Edmonde Charles-Roux, l’auteur d’Oublier Palerme et d’Elle, Adrienne, retrace un destin unique : celui d’une femme qui exerca son pouvoir a la tete d’une immense entreprise, fut le pole d’attraction de toute une epoque, et qui aura ete, neanmoins, tout au long de son existence, une marginale, une « irreguliere ». Ce portrait d’une celebre inconnue est beaucoup plus qu’un portrait : c’est la chronique des soixante-dix premieres annees de ce siecle ; il n’est, en effet, guere d’hommes et de femmes celebres qui n’aient approche Gabrielle Chanel. Cocteau, aussi bien que Picasso, Max Jacob, Paul Morand, Colette, Reverdy, Missia Sert, son amie de toujours, Diaghilev et Stravinskifurent, entre autres, les temoins intimes de cette aventure extraordinaire.

Bleu de Chanel eau de toilette is a new interpretation of the eponymous mens fragrance released by Chanel back in the 30s of the last century. This stylish and incredibly versatile scent was created specifically to emphasize the best features of modern men living in noisy megacities. "Be unpredictable!" — calls its owners a luxurious, noble and incredibly original fragrance Bleu de Chanel. Built on a harmonious combination of contrasting woody-fougere notes, it serves as a life-giving breath of freedom for modern men, capable of decorating gray everyday life in bright colors. Bleu de Chanel eau de toilette is freshness, passion, originality and versatility, enclosed in one plane. As soon as they break out, they will immediately begin to play hooliganistically and fervently on the skin of their owner with various colors. To some, they will give the freshness of a gusty sea wind, to others - the invigorating energy of citrus fruits, and to others - the sensuality of woody-musky chords. However, no matter how this amazing summer fragrance is revealed, its sound always remains unusually melodic, appropriate and restrained. Bleu de Chanel eau de toilette is the best companion for determined, self—confident men who are ready to go against the rules. French actor Gaspard Houllier, who is the advertising face of this everyday fragrance, plays the image of modern representatives of the stronger sex, for whom such a mysterious and exquisite perfume composition is intended. The composition of Bleu de Chanel eau de toilette is a euphonious perfume piece consisting of three contrasting, but surprisingly harmonious acts. The opening chord of the woody-fougere piece is dominated by cool notes of citrus, vetiver and pink pepper. It is they who bring to the fragrance the image of boundless icy freedom, which you want to revel in endlessly. In the second act, shades of grapefruit, labdanum and cedar gain a clear advantage. These bitter notes, endowed with sensuality and nobility, give their owner tireless energy, which is expressed in a thirst for adventure and new achievements. The magnificent performance of Bleu de Chanel finishes its sound with a mysterious combination of incense, sandalwood and ginger. Such an audacious union, filled with originality and originality, does not allow its owner to remain in the shadows and favorably distinguishes him from the faceless crowd.
